February 23: Writing Prompt #54-B+

Write about what you did last weekend as though you’re a music critic reviewing a new album.
Fascinating prompt…well, I’ll give it my best shot, so here goes!
Although the release of last weekend got off to a late start Friday night, the server at Ferrelli’s made up for it by making us laugh and getting our drinks and delectable sausage macaroni and cheese and spaghetti and meatballs out to us promptly! From there, the night took us to the bowling alley where although the 2 games we played were not #1 hits, we enjoyed them nonetheless. 
After a break in the action for sleep, we once again started the second part of our weekend off taking our time, but finally made it into the truck and off to the Olympic National Forest and the Murhut Falls Trail Head.  This was definitely the highlight of the weekend.  The falls were music to our ears; the sunshine was soothing to our souls, and the fresh air was just was the doctor ordered for all of us, including the dog!!

The too short weekend concluded with a restful, puttering around the house kind of day, but it continued to keep us interested, not wanting to stop and get back to our weekday jobs right away because the day served a need for everyone.  Overall, I would rate the weekend an 8 in terms of opportunities for stress release, 10 in terms of quality family time, and 7 in terms of productivity time around the house.  In the end, I am happy to sacrifice some of the chore time for the more important stress release and quality time aspects of the weekend.  If you agree these are the more attractive types of weekend pursuits for you, than you should try out this weekend itinerary or something similar and accessible to you in your neck of the woods.
